Deformation of asymptotically isospectral metrics (Q1302140)

A one parameter family of Riemannian metrics \( g _t, \;t \in \mathbb{R} ^+ \), on a smooth manifold \( M \) is called a deformation with spectrally linear tightness if \( \text{Spec}(M, g _t) \) satisfies the following condition: for any \( t _0 \in \mathbb{R} ^+ \) there exists an open neighborhood \( I _{t_0} \) of \( t _0 \) in \( \mathbb{R} ^+ \) such that: \[ \limsup [\lambda _k (g _{t _0}) - \lambda _k (g _t)] k < \infty \quad \text{for all}\quad t \in I _{t _0}. \] The main result of the paper under review is the following: Let \( \{ g _t \} \) be a one-parameter family of Kähler metrics on a complex closed manifold with \( b _2 (M) = 1. \) If it satisfies the following two conditions: (i) \( \text{Spec}(M, g _0)=\text{Spec}(\mathbb{C}\mathbb{P} ^n, g _{\text{can}}), \) where \( g _{\text{can}} \) is the Fubini-Study metric on \( \mathbb{C} \mathbb{P} ^n,\) \( n \geq 2; \) (ii) The deformation has a spectrally linear tightness. Then \( (M, g _t) \) is holomorphically isometric to \( (\mathbb{C} \mathbb{P} ^n , g _{\text{can}}) \) for all \( t \in \mathbb{R} ^+\).
